Analyses in a large clinical trial in hypertensive patients (SPRINT) and in the Cardiovascular Health study cohort coherently showed that the difference between the GFR as estimated by serum cystatin and creatine (eGFRDiff) associates with frailty and predicts a lower risks for adverse outcomes ...
Average creatinine clearance (CrCl), calculated by both total body weight and lean body mass, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were calculated for each group.ResultsOf the 686 TTEs reviewed, 18 patients fulfilled the criteria for diastolic heart failure and 118 patients had ...
The role of the difference and ratio of albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, uACR) and proteinuria (urine protein-to-creatinine ratio, uPCR) has not been systematically evaluated with all-cause mortality. We retrospectively analyzed 2904 patie
Conditions considered to be a risk to maternal health included PE), HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets) syndrome, poorly controlled hypertension, rapidly increasing nephrotic proteinuria, and increased serum creatinine, alone or in combination. Indications for cesarean section ...
concentration (albumin, light chains, and other globulins) divided by urine creatinine. Furthermore, an ACR test is ordered when albumin proteinuria is suspected, while a PCR test is ordered when non-albumin proteinuria is suspected. This is the summary of the difference between ACR and PCR. ...
The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the following equation: eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) = 194 × serum creatinine (−1.094) × age (−0.287) × 0.739 (if female). Serum and urinary cortisol concentrations were evaluated using an electrochemil...
There was no significant dif- ference between the two groups in gender, age, systolic blood pressure, urinary protein, serum creatinine, eGFR, uric acid, urinary red blood cell count, IgA, complement C3, C4, TG, CRP, mesangial cell proliferation (M1), tubu- lar atrophy/interstitial fibrosis...
In this sub-cohort, total tes- tosterone and free testosterone were inversely associated with uric acid, whereas there lacked an association between bioavailable testosterone with uric acid (Table 3). In adult women and perimenopausal women (aged 47–56 years), free and bioavailable estradiol...
and data on fasting glucose, hemoglobin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C/LDL-C), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (calculated as reported previously [24]), uric acid and creatinine (calculated as reported previously [24]) are record...
There is no doubt that serum creatinine (Scr) concentration differs between ethnicities and sexes. We show that creatinine-based equations for white populations may be inaccurate for estimating GFR in other ethnic/gender groups, especially in populations from Asia. Methods This study presents a ...
